Talking about the appropriate attribution,
The http://data.australia.gov.au/152 webpage indicates the citation as "Queensland Department of Environment and Resource Management". This is incorrect and DERM is actually chasing up the website editor to get things changed. (Trust a "gov2.0" initiative to respond at web 1.0 speeds.) Just to confirm, the correct minimum attribution is "State of Queensland (Department of Environment and Resource Management) 2009" for the following datasets: Property Boundaries Annual Extract Queensland (Lite DCDB) Original dataset home page: http://data.australia.gov.au/152 Local Government Boundaries Annual Extract Queensland Original dataset home page: http://data.australia.gov.au/157 Surface Water Gauging Stations Queensland Original dataset home page: http://data.australia.gov.au/148 Groundwater Observation Bore Sites Original dataset home page: http://data.australia.gov.au/142 Drainage Basins Queensland Original dataset home page: http://data.australia.gov.au/134 Queensland Wetlands Mapping Estates Layer including National Parks, Conservation Areas & Forest Reserves Original dataset home page: http://data.australia.gov.au/127 Queensland Wetlands Data Wetlands Original dataset home page: http://data.australia.gov.au/119 Queensland Wetlands Mapping Streams Original dataset home page: http://data.australia.gov.au/97 or http://data.australia.gov.au/114 There might be an equivalent problem with the other state and territory datasets but I would need to hase up to confirm.
